> Don't waste transistors on them just program an execution unit to execute that instruction on the fly, etc. Possible, but the "x86" part is already a big decoder in front of a murky processor underneath so this is already what the CPU does - if you removed the reference to an FPGA, rewriting old x86 instructions in terms of "new" ones is microcode. |
